Sumr Monroe instinctively looked towards the direction Isaac Ross pointed.
It was a towering office building, with four bold characters "Knight Group" prominently displayed at the top.
Sumr suddenly rembered the ssage from Damian Knight saying the company had a sudden issue, and he couldn’t return to Stanton Manor imdiately.
Her eyelid twitched fiercely, and she hurriedly asked Isaac Ross, "What happened to Damian Knight?"
Isaac Ross sighed and said, "I just found out too. Damian didn’t want to tell you, but I still ca to find you..."
"Just tell , what happened to him? How can I help?"
Isaac Ross made a "please" gesture and said, "Get in the car first, we’ll talk as we go."
"Okay." Sumr nodded without hesitation and quickly got into Isaac Ross’s car.
The car sped along, and Isaac Ross explained the situation as he drove.
"I rember you’re the spokesperson for Midnight Coffee House. Today, a custor ca in, ate sothing from the store, and suffered an allergic shock. The situation is very serious, and the custor is still in the hospital, being rescued. His family is causing a commotion at the company, demanding the closure of Midnight Coffee House. The situation has blown up; people are discussing such incidents online, and many are protesting against Midnight Coffee House."
Sumr listened carefully and, after thinking for a couple of seconds, spoke: "If a custor has a food allergy, it’s quite normal. The company should handle it properly and offer enough compensation. How did it beco such a big issue?"
"The problem lies here."
Isaac Ross used the red light’s pause to pull up several screenshots from his phone, then handed the phone to Sumr, saying, "Take a look."
Sumr glanced at the phone.
The screenshots depicted news stories, all stating that custors experienced varying degrees of food allergies after consuming products at Midnight Coffee House, with so reports directly stating food poisoning.
Poisoning.
This is far more severe than allergies.
Sumr suddenly realized the gravity of the situation.
During her endorsent shoot, she had heard Knight Group planned to develop Midnight Coffee House into a globally renowned top-tier coffee and dessert shop. To achieve this, Knight Group had invested a terrifying amount of manpower and resources.
If such large-scale food allergies or poisoning incidents occur, the brand is dood.
Sumr’s expression grew more solemn as she continued reading.
Several seconds later, she asked, "Have there been inspections of the store’s food? Is it possible that during semi-finished product production, incompatible food combinations inadvertently occurred?"
Food incompatibility refers to unsuitable food collocations causing food poisoning.
Isaac Ross shook his head and said, "I asked Damian. As soon as the first incident occurred, he personally ordered a thorough inspection. The coffee shop doesn’t use many ingredients, and it didn’t take more than a day to complete the check. There was nothing wrong with the food."
"What about the custors themselves? Is it possible that these few custors coincidentally had poor health?"
Isaac Ross shook his head again: "The ones involved are all strong, young people. But this particular incident is especially severe because the custor has a blood disorder and is still not out of danger. All the families of the affected custors are gathered at the Knight Group building entrance. Damian is trying to settle things privately with them now. When you called , I was on-site, and the scene was very chaotic."
